Presentation (Students will give their

answers)

“Very nice! I am very pleased you were able to finish the task given
to you. Now let’s discuss your answers. Anybody who can tell me
what he/she notices with the following sentences?”
Discussion (Student will volunteer to
read the first sentence: “A
declarative sentence states
a fact or opinion and ends
“Very good observation! Now, let me introduce you the four types of with a period.)
sentences. Would someone read this sentence for me?”

“Thanks. Now, let’s take a look at the sentence that group 1 came (Student answers: Ma’am,
up with. This one is a declarative sentence. Could you tell me the because it gives an idea and
reason why it’s classified as declarative?” it states a fact. It also ends
with a period)

“Very good. Well said. Now, can somebody give me an example of (Students answer)
a declarative sentence?”

“Nice answers! Now let’s talk about the second type of sentence. (Student will volunteer to
Would someone read the definition written on the board?” read the first sentence: “An
interrogative sentence asks
a question and ends with a
question mark.)

“Nice one and could you give me an example as well?” (The student will give an
example.)

“Very good! It’s easy to understand, right? Remember that an “Yes, Ma’am!”
interrogative sentence ends with a question mark. The sentence
that group 2 came up with is an example of it! Did you get it?”

I also want to remind you that you have to read an interrogative “Yes, Ma’am!”
sentence well. You have to sound like you’re really asking a
question. Don’t just read it as if it’s a declarative sentence so you
won’t be misunderstood when someone listens to you.”

“That is wonderful! So let’s proceed to the next type of sentence “An imperative sentence
which is the imperative sentence. Read the definition, expresses a request or
____________.” gives a command or
direction. It also and ends
with a period or exclamation
mark.”

“Thanks. Now, let’s check the sentence that group 3 came up with. (A student volunteers and
It ends with a period but that doesn’t mean it’s a declarative answers: Ma’am, it’s
sentence. Can somebody explain the class why?” because the sentence do
not state a fact an opinion. It
states a request.)
“You got it! Perfect! Now, I want you class to give me an example of (students volunteer to give
an imperative sentence that gives an order or direction.” their answers)

“Oh! Well done! So, what about an imperative sentence that (students volunteer to give
expresses a request?” their answers)

“Oh! I could see that you got a little confused with the imperative (Student reads: “An
sentence but I am glad you were able to get its function. Nice try for exclamatory sentence
those who gave their answers! Now let’s discuss the last type of conveys emotion and ends
sentence. Exclamatory sentence. Read the definition, with an exclamation mark.”)
___________.”

“Thanks. That’s good. Now, I know you’ll find it very easy to (students volunteer to give
understand its function. Can somebody give me an example?” their answers)

“Well done, class! Do you have any questions? Any clarifications?” (students says no)/(students
asks questions)
